Cotlete de porc in miere, la grill

4 portii

Timp de preparare si marinare: 15 minute

Timp de gatit: 16-20 minute

Ingrediente:

• 225 g (8 oz) inele de ananas in suc propriu (mai sanatos decat siropul)
• 4 linguri miere
• 1 lingura dry sherry (sec)
• 2 lingurite mustar cu boabe
• 1 lingurita condiment ardei iute (chilli)
• 1/4 lingurita sare
• piper negru (proaspat macinat de preferinta)
• 4 cotlete de porc, de cca 100g fiecare
• ceapa verde pentru decor

Preparare:

• Strecoara ananasul si pastreaza sucul. Intr-un bol amesteca sucul cu mierea, sherry, mustar, ardei iute, sare si piper. Pune deoparte 2 linguri din acest sos marinat, vei avea putin mai tarziu de el.
• Pune cotletele si ananasul intr-o farfurie adanca. Toarna peste ele sosul de marinat. Acopera farfuria si pune-o la frigider pentru 30 de minute, intorcand ingredientele o singura data.
• Incalzeste grill-ul simplu (single grill) din cuptor la 230°C. Scoate cotletele si ananasul din sos.
• Pune carnea pe gratarul din cuptor, avand grija sa fie si tava dedesubt, pentru a aduna sucul care curge. Gratarul trebuie sa fie pe primul spatiu de sus al cuptorului. Lasa cotletele cca 8-10 minute pe fiecare parte sau pana se patrunde carnea toata. In ultimele 5 minute adauga inelel de ananas si intoarce-le doar o data.
• Aranjeaza pe un platou carnea cu ananasul si decoreaza cu ceapa verde de primavara.

Pofta buna!
